Door, Window & Screen Repair Across Gwinnett County

Georgia humidity is hard on everything that swings or slides. Gwinnett's doors swell tight in the wet months and shrink rattly in January; strike plates drift out of alignment as houses settle; patio sliders fill their tracks with a decade of grit; sash windows get painted shut one repaint at a time; and screen doors and window screens surrender to dogs, toddlers, and time. Each is a small repair with an outsized payoff, and together they make one of the county's most satisfying bundled visits.

Doors, tuned rather than fought

The fix is usually mechanical and modest: hinges reset with longer screws into framing, a latch-side edge planed where August proves it necessary, strike plates moved to meet reality, sweeps and thresholds renewed, and weatherstripping replaced so conditioned air stops leaking into the yard. Exterior locksets and deadbolts swap cleanly in the same visit — a between-tenant standard for the county's landlords. Interior doors and closet doors have their own page.

Windows and sliders, moving again

Painted-shut sashes in the county's older stock — Norcross and Lilburn especially — free up with patience and a sash saw, then get their tracks cleaned and hardware renewed. Sliders come off their rails for cleaning and new rollers, which turns a two-hand shove back into one finger. Balky crank operators on casements are a parts-and-patience repair. Foggy double panes are a sealed-unit replacement — quoted honestly as glass work when that's what the window needs.

Screens, before the season needs them

Re-screening frames, rebuilding the bent ones, and re-rolling screen-door mesh is quick, cheap work best booked before porch season opens in April. Gwinnett's mosquitoes make the case better than any ad: tight screens are the difference between using the porch and looking at it. Screens bundle with any other repair on this page — which is how most households book them.
